| When most people wake up and make the commute to work, many dream of one day when they will enjoy the life of working for themselves. Every time the jerk in charge tells you that the deadline is getting close and the weekend is going to have to be spent at the office in order to completet the deadline, the benefits to working for yourself sound so mouth watering. Are you one of those people driving 45 minutes to work wishing you didn't have to? If you are, it is important to ask yourself some very important questions before you make the uncertain leap into self-employment. Many dream of the benefits of home business ownership, but few take into account the sacrifices that must be made to bring the dream to fruition. Please don't make this mistake yourself. A Very Important Consideration Are you the type of person who relishes every chance to gather around the water cooler for social interaction? If so, then home business ownership may not be the right decision for you. Instead, if you feel that you can be quite content sitting alone at your desk, speaking only to clients and really contributing to your own home business, then you might have what it takes to succeed as a home business entrepreneur. If you feel at ease with your own company and don't need a dozen co-workers milling around your desk, then you, too, could enjoy the freedoms that will allow you and your family to live the lifestyle you know you want and earned. The Successful Ingrediant to a Home Business Motivation is the key to success when you start a home-based business. You need to possess the ability to push yourself ahead. Your drive and determination will be reinforced with every new sale. The level of success that you will achieve depends on the time and effort you put into your new home business. Your organization, planning and marketing skills will all be put into practice when you step into the world of self-employment, and firing your old boss. In fact, you will be the bearer of many struggles and gain a wealth of business experience along the way when you finally make that commitment to work at home. Your Success is on You and You Alone You will now be the boss. Are you truly able to work independently? Do you have the drive, the tenacity, to persevere with your home-based business? Will you be able to invest the necessary time to nurture it, have the patients to endure the hardships, to watch it grow, from a blank page to a best seller? When you're the boss, you are responsible for the success of your home business, from start to finish, from disappointments to satisfactions. When you work at home, it will result in you achieving many things you were unable to do when you were stuck working for that boss that everyone called jerk. Remember him? He's the guy that wouldn't let you take time off when your child was sick. . . the same one that called you to the office because he couldn't find something. . . of the guy that gives the friendly pats on the rear-end for a job well done when all you did was just your job A home business means that you have the ability to simultaneously take good care of your family and make money from home. You will have the best of both worlds, but it wont be easy at times! It has so many benefits, just think--no more dirty laundry piling up--you can do it while you work. No more last minute calls to a friend or the neighbor girl searching for a babysitter, because you were called into work. Definitely no more worrying about getting fired; you'll be the boss! Making The Decision Means Hard work, dedication, and most of patients. It takes time to build a business. You don't see a new Burger King go up in a week do you? No, but after 4 or 5 months of hard work they are finally open for business and that's when the money starts coming in and making all that hard work worth every sacrifice made to get there. |
